I left out the ones which are using virt_to_bus() for now, because they are broken on 2.5.x anyway because of that (planb, zoran, stradis unless I've missed one). And at least for bttv the switchover from virt_to_bus() to the PCI DMA mapping interface wasn't trivial (althrought I also did many other cleanups too along the way), thus I don't feel like fixing those drivers blindly (i.e. without having hardware to test with). I prefeare having stuff obviously broken in the kernel three rather than having a driver which compiles, loads and crashes the box ... > The point is I have a rather large patch for planb around that I hadn't > sent off yet (it adds stuff that doesn't work yet).

It is already present in the latest pre patches, I think it the best way is you adapt it yourself and send it the way to Linus. Gerd -- #include </dev/tty>
